The correct answer is 'B'.

Explicação

## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the correct suffix that can be added to the root word 'phon', which means 'ound', to create a word that means 'having characteristics of sound'.## Step 2The suffix '-ic' is used to form adjectives that mean 'having the nature of' or 'characterized by'. When added to 'phon', it forms the word 'phonic', which means 'having the nature of sound'.## Step 3The other options, 'ed', 'ent', and 'tion', do not form words that mean 'having characteristics of sound' when added to 'phon'.
